Help me decide on a mf sorc

[LukeTD]

Once ladder resets, I am planning to make a sorc, primarily for mfing.
Choices are:
1) Lightning Sorc
2) Cl/Orb Sorc
3) Blizzard Sorc
4) Meteorb Sorc

Which of these 4 would be the best overall mfer, keeping in mind that I won't have great gear to work with?

I say blizz for meph/andy runs
dont have much experience with dual tree sorcs but they need better stuff to be effective

I will go for meteorber.

Best overall build. Blizzard or orbber is always very good choise for mephi/andariel, if you have help during leveling (you will lose nerve while questin/exping alone in hell because of the cold immunes)

Get a good editor and see what suits you, i find that Orb is the best skill. But alot of people do seem to fawor blizzard

I'd go lightning, as, toward the beginning of the ladder, it'd be more profitable (using the D2 economy as we know it... and, undoubtedly, it'll change in ways we can't predict) to run all the keys than to MF, because of a lack of viable MF gear.

Hi,

best overall mfer

4) Meteorb - f.orb owns everything on NM but is pretty much useless against bosses.

5) Blizzballer - focusing on cold tree untill ~45 will make you as effective as pure blizz in NM MFing and nice spammable fireball helps in hell

I'm going to start blizzballer myself.

FO - firewall is my choice
20 firewall
20 fire mastery
20 FO
10 CM
20 static field

What kind of lightning build you have in mind?
